Missing Names - Boys

This pub quiz handout round features a list of 15 words, each of which has a number of its letters blanked out, such as "P A R _ _ _ _ E N T". The aim for teams in your quiz is to complete these words by entering names that, according to the Office for National Statics, were among the 100 most popular names for baby boys born in England and Wales in 2011. In the example above, "P A R _ _ _ _ E N T" can be turned into the word "Parliament" by adding the name "Liam".

A few of these words are fairly straightforward to make sure teams can get up and running on this round quickly, however, there are also some that are likely to take a fair bit of puzzling over, so this quiz round should keep teams entertained for some time.

It is recommended that this round is used in a quiz as a handout round. For more information on handout rounds and our recommended use for them in quizzes click here
